Skill functions and interactions

Decay is a damaging debuff that deals chaos damage over time. It is not a skill or ailment, and it is not a skill effect for the purpose of modifiers to Skill Effect Duration.

Decaying Hex scales with modifiers related to chaos damage and curse modifiers, but does not currently reflect this in the tooltip. It does not currently scale with curse duration.[Likely due to a bug]

Curses socketed in Blasphemy meta gem supported by Decaying hex do not apply damage over time debuff.

Item acquisition

Decaying Hex has restrictions on where or how it can drop.

It can be obtained by engraving an Uncut Support Gem.
